Default VB4 Problem

I'm hoping someone can help. I have an old application developed with VB4 and it is packaged using the Application Setup Wizard. Up until now I have distributed it to users without any problem but recently the following happened.

When the user went to install the application he got an "Insufficient Disk Space" error. He is using Windows XP. He continued installing but when he tries to run the software an "Out of Memory" error occurs. I can run install and run the software fine on my Windows XP machine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I presume you have verified, but it never hurts to check:
Have you made sure the user has enough disk space? Perhap, if not, the memory error is a manifestation of being out of virtual memory space from insufficient disk space to treat as RAM.
